Figure Drawing














These drawings have been drawn in various stages. The first one which is on the bottom was the beginning of the stages of practice. Then for the middle drawing was next in the sequence. showing that i learned to look for the center axis of the body to find shape and not just drawing outlines. It also shows the starting of depth to the figure with darker and lighter lines. Then for the most resent drawing which is the top drawing really show a big jump from the first drawing. In it you see the usage of axis and depth. It also starts to play with figure and other props.

Potato Peeler


This is a ergonomically enhanced potato that I designed in Human Body Form class. It is geared toward children that are getting into cooking with their parents. There is a lot of input or organic shapes. The shape of the handle is formed to easily fit into the hand, and the blade is tilted to relieve pressure off the wrist.














This a snap shot of a Home Desk that was designed by two group partners and I for a universal desk project that was presented in my Human Body and Form class last year. The desk top is fully adjustable to go up and down for large and small people. The shelves are designed so that they come at you on an arch for easy reach. The electric strip is built into the desk a way that the user can plug stuff in and then slide the cords back out of the way. Last but on least the storage units on both sides of the desk are easy to situate to where the user wants them in the room. They have slots in them for three ring binder, and the storage spot on top are for people that like to pile their papers.
